We stopped linking to it from the website with this latest release of Tor Browser. Over a year ago we stated we were going to remove the plain vidalia bundles in favor of Tor Browser, see https://blog.torproject.org/blog/plain-vidalia-bundles-be-discontinued-dont-panic. The reasons in that blog post are still valid today. Even moreso as Tor continues to attract a less-technology savvy userbase. You can use the tor browser bundle to do the same things you did in the past with the vidalia bundle, it just comes with a free browser. Or if you understand the moving components, use one of the bridge/relay-by-default bundles and reconfigure it, or use the tor expert bundle for your SOCKS proxy needs. We stopped distributing polipo a while ago, see https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/6039 for the progress in getting the references off the page. -- Andrew http://tpo.is/contact pgp 0x6B4D6475 _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
